I suppose the stunning vacuity of the MSM commentary on the lawsuit in question. We hear Journalists pretending to journalists, Expert Commentators pretending to be experts, and so on. But if we have have ears to hear, listen closely, they sense the void that Thomas Merton called The Unspeakable.
We each could make a list of the things similar to "He Whose Name Must Not Be Mentioned." We cannot seriously critique the military because that would insult our "young men and women in uniform." Accusing the CIA is complicit in sponsoring drug activities in the US, worldwide (?), would imply the War on Drugs is a sham. And of course, the pattern is the same with the suspicion that the Saudi government helped at least with funding of 9/11 would threaten our relationship with a key ally and supplier of much of the world's oil. The Pattern: there is the initial Raid of truth on the Unspeakable, there is the deflection, the dissembling, the denial, the flapping mouth which provides and knot of confusion why we need to avoid what must be true. There is the initial raid followed by the incomprehensible noise that we have been trained to accept as common sense.
But the unspeakable sentences are not The Unspeakable. They are like vast clouds of gas and dust that are under the control of a inferred massive object that cannot be seen--a black hole. The thoughts and sentences that must not exist are testimony to the void that controls them. Even members of a secret government, secret societies, people giving orders with a wink and a nod are part of that obscuring cloud about to cross the even horizon only to be replaced by more voices.
The organizing void is The Unspeakable. It transcends time and location. The void "fears" the truth; it "wants" to pull all life into itself. It will fail. That is an act of faith and nothing more.
But the lawsuit itself will get nowhere. After all, the Saudis, with the approval of the "Justice" Department are claiming Sovereign Immunity. Well, there you are. Discourse is ended; what once obsessed us now old news; who really attacked us is irrelevant. After all, we are at war with an enemy that is everywhere and seeks our destruction.
